Info The Temple of Garni (lit. "pagan temple of Garni") is a classical Hellenistic temple in Garni, Armenia. It is perhaps the best-known structure and symbol of pre-Christian Armenia and was probably built by king Tiridates I in the first century AD as a temple to the sun god Mihr. According to some scholars it was not a temple but a tomb and thus survived the universal destruction of pagan structures. It collapsed in a 1679 earthquake and reconstructed between 1969 and 1975.

Support -- Kasir (talk) 12:35, 11 February 2017 (UTC)- Support Great one for its EV and nice view. It was challenging to get an image without tourists as it is one of the most important touristic attractions in the country. Thank you, Kasir! Poco2 13:13, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
Comment Using a 24mm lens does cause perspective issues though and it is a very close crop. Charles (talk) 13:36, 11 February 2017 (UTC)- Support lNeverCry 00:48, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

Neutral Still has perspective and CA problems. And how did you get that azure sky? Altitude? GND? Both? It doesn't quite look natural; you don't usually have such skies in your work. Support now. Daniel Case (talk) 04:10, 12 February 2017 (UTC)- Support I'm ok with this perspective. Some buildings look positively grotesque if you do a "proper" perspective adjustment. I tried this one and it would make the roof look weird. There is the question of the sky though, I know the camera can play these tricks on pics sometimes (been there myself) and you need to lighten/desaturate/tone down it a bit to make things look normal. Great EV and kudos for getting rid of the tourists. --cart-Talk 11:33, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
- Full support now with the fixed sky + other things. --cart-Talk 12:42, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
- Comment @W.carter and Daniel Case: Ok, I've reduced the saturation of the sky a bit, increased the crop a bit also on the right, got rid of some tourists in the back and removed slight CA Poco2 12:30, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
